Hired on Thumbtack

Katrina is amazing. I’ve been working with her for a few weeks now to reduce tightness in my body. She knows her stuff and for me this is working better than physical therapy. She can stretch me deeper than I can do on my own. I love that she is available for home visits I am looking forward to continuing working Katrina
